Thanks. This is all good to hear and something I'm struggling to reconcile. In academia I was always keen to show and develop a real capability, as opposed to being the comfortable academic. I wrote a lot of code and some decent engines for the different techs relevant to my field... but that's not exactly the point. I've been increasingly keen to learn about startups/entrepreneurship and have engaged with mentors and local startups and incubators for years in prep of making the leap. A large part of my value is taking away the risk and showing investors and potential recruits that we can get it done. My academic job wasn't handed to me.
